The word of importance
the word which carries weight
the word which commands power
the word that percolates through
the word that demands
the word that ruins
the word destroys
the word that plays havoc
is not anything ecstatic
is not anything lovely
is not anything that is ethical
it is that which we call
some with delight
some others with disgust
even more with scorn
is the word corruption
that has entered everywhere
robbing the morales
depriving the rightful
prospecting the powerful
making them rich in tons
that which we have to condemn
with a vigour and rigour
be it corruption everywhere.
